Ubisoft revealed more details about upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood at Comic-Con. Among them were plans for DLC, multiplayer, and some hints about what will happen to Desmond. Although no specifics were mentioned, Ubisoft did confirm that DLC will be available for the title, perhaps in the form of new playable characters.
A new multiplayer trailer of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood was shown at Comic Com 2010. In AC: Brotherhood, you’ll see the return of Ezio and the continuing struggles of the Assassins vs the Templars. Expect almost everyone that you met in ACII (but didn’t kill ) to return, albeit through deepened relationships.
